Now think about what you would do with your face.&nbsp; You might scrunch your eyebrows.&nbsp; Now imagine you are a lion roaring.&nbsp; How would your face change? You might widely open your mouth and eyes then show your ferocious teeth.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>These are two simple facial expression warm ups that can start you on your journey to considering&nbsp; how you can use your body language to convey your message.&nbsp;&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Today we are going to look at the <strong>3 parts of your face that will help you convey and control the different emotions<\/strong> you might utilize when you are on stage.&nbsp;&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image is-style-default\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/lh3.googleusercontent.com\/OI3i5pY0ERrs7-QYp-4yPEuJW5JKuY_x0Ay9w_BWje_ytzrR5dW06DTyVo3_qNvXugFHV81aJvB_i_Sx0mhD8eWrS38q1Ew4strNG9oam-IGbUY4OZWsmFLtjLMDkQicpEC874Xe=s0\" alt=\"Facial expressions\"\/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>There are <strong>7 major facial expressions<\/strong> that you can use as tools for greater impact of your messages.&nbsp; Whether it is a presentation in a meeting,&nbsp; a doctor talking to a nurse, an artist talking to an investor, or in your home negotiating something with your family, facial expressions are very important. The 7 expressions are below and today we will briefly outline how you can begin to use your face to convey them effectively.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Happiness<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Sadness<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Disgust<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Surprise<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Contempt<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Anger<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Fear<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image is-style-default\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/lh6.googleusercontent.com\/OSOt6wRssKuUesN7NIa51jibkLTmu_V4ktuAijRDJZUyWq7e6rd9xL8MgiQWcnRRN_HkoDAxHanw3BwoHbgCEHbShQhZAl0hJPLTCKKyj4kqkb545eO6lhDuqrZUxlSuxJF36POd=s0\" alt=\"Expressions with eyes\"\/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>The Eyebrows<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>One of the most expressive parts of your body are your eyebrows. Try raising your eyebrows right now. Stereotypically if you raise and arch your eyebrows people generally interpret&nbsp; this expression as surprise.&nbsp; If you lower them and knit them together&nbsp; it can mean anger, sadness or fear. And lastly if you draw in the inner corners this is how you usually show sadness.&nbsp;&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>If you Imagine someone telling you a really sad story you might instinctively start drawing in the corners of your eyebrows. Those are the 3 major things you can do with your eyebrows. Some of you are very talented and you can make your eyebrows wiggle and maybe even crazier feats but those are not common expressions.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The <strong>3 general motions<\/strong> you can manipulate with your eyebrows are:&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>Raise and arch<\/strong><\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Lower and knit together&nbsp;<\/strong><\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Or you can draw the inner corners<\/strong><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image is-style-default\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/lh5.googleusercontent.com\/Tbi-rtkqdvIgJ61MmKE5pZw_Y8ELH2gFUDQ1rg5HV8x8gzrf_RCaROEOKadEuy4q68MJob82Jec5aQcB1OCKeoFGxfCHaMfSlBCYXRayffrkwM1a2zJzDTFv1YOxvhzUXjudv2x_=s0\" alt=\"Expressions with Eyebrows\"\/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>The Eyes<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The eyes are the Windows to the Soul!

If you are on screen during a virtual presentation and keep looking away the entire time your audience would think you were&nbsp; distracted and not present for them.&nbsp; Try to be conscious of these cues because when you are on stage or on screen you don\u2019t want your eyes to communicate a conflicting message.&nbsp;&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>The Mouth<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image is-style-default\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/lh3.googleusercontent.com\/yqZ9c9guUMd0AAPFeASO85o5lVkioxhF5tDUr2_yop5GVnNrQGAX2ZSbS1eE1fagZ0RrQbw-GGW-53p5tKAgwt6LTXLzT3QsTXNM4uP-ZcxvqHvevKTrnbgrXHdlTLnJYHFkoONC=s0\" alt=\"Expressions with Mouth\"\/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>A dropped jaw is usually surprise<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>An opened mouth is usually fear<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>If you raise one side of your mouth it is usually hate or contempt<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>If you raise the corners it is otherwise known as a smile&nbsp;<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Lower the corners of your mouth is the classic signal for sadness<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p><em><strong>The lips<\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>If you put you lips together it can also be both contempt or distaste.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Let\u2019s put all these together<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>These are the three parts you have to work with when it comes to facial expressions.

Forgive me for using a few stereotypes here but I\u2019d like you to channel your inner Italian, your inner french.&nbsp; There are many expressive cultures and there are also a number of cultures that are quite reserved but for this exercise I want you to think outside of the expressive norms in your culture and put on a different \u201chat\u201d today..&nbsp; I want you to really exaggerate these expressions just for practice so that you can execute them at will for the expressive purposes you desire.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Below is an exercise that will benefit you as a communicator, increasing your ability to leverage the power of your face.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>I want you to write a 2 minute story that conveys 3 distinct emotions.&nbsp; You will then share this with someone you live with, one of your friends, or with a colleague virtually.&nbsp; You are tasked with taking this person on an emotional&nbsp; rollercoaster.
